How do I choose the right size bit for my Stanley HD-45?
Match the bit diameter to your intended anchor, fastener, or hole size, and ensure the shank fits the drill’s chuck or adapter.
Are your drill bits made in the USA?
Yes! All of our drill bits are proudly made in the USA with precision, durability, and performance in mind.
How do I know if a drill bit is for wood?
Look for a sharp center point and spurs on the edges—these help guide and cut clean holes in wood.
How do I know if I’m drilling into wood?
You’ll feel less resistance than with metal, and the shavings will be light, curly, and sawdust-like.
Do you offer bulk or custom drill bit orders?
Yes! Contact us for volume pricing or to discuss custom bit specifications for your project.
How fast is your shipping?
Most orders ship within 1–2 business days. Need it faster? Reach out—we’ll do our best to help.
How do you attach a hole cutter to a drill?
Use the correct arbor or adapter for your drill type. For annular cutters, you’ll typically use a Weldon shank adapter in a magnetic drill.
How do you choose the correct Morse taper size?
Check your machine’s spindle specifications — using the wrong size will cause poor fit and unsafe operation.
How do you install a taper shank drill bit?
Insert the shank directly into the matching Morse taper socket and seat it with a slight twist or tap to lock it in place.
